SCOP Classification Browser (open popup)

Searches or browses for structures by SCOP terms (Structural Classification Of Proteins).
SCOP is a mostly manually curated classification of protein structural domains according to their three-dimensional structures
(http://scop.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk/scop/).

The SCOP Browser permits the user to navigate through the SCOP hierarchy to arrive at the subset of particular interest.
The browser opens up the top level in the hierarchy. Clicking on the arrow/folder icons expands the respective nodes.
Clicking on the name of the node will retrieve all PDB IDs assigned to that node.

Examples:

TIM barrel

Type TIM barrel in the text box above the tree and click the "Find in Tree" button. The first hit is to
"PHP domain" which mentions "some similarity to ... TIM-barrel fold". Scroll back to the top, and click "Next".
You will find the term TIM beta/alpha-barrel. Click on the name to retrieve a list of these structures.
